Great Bourton is a small rural village in the Cherwell district of Oxfordshire, England, lying a few miles north of Banbury. Set in gently rolling farmland and paired historically with neighbouring Little Bourton, it has the compact, agricultural character of many Northamptonshire–Oxfordshire border settlements and sits within easy commuting distance of larger towns.
The village has long-standing rural and agricultural roots and retains a mix of older stone and brick houses alongside more modern homes; community life tends to centre on local events and facilities typical of a small English village. Its quiet lanes and close-knit feel make it popular with people seeking countryside living while working in nearby towns.
